Congress.gov records H.R.1652 became Public Law 117-27 and directed deferred- and non-prosecution-agreement revenues into the Crime Victims Fund while changing victim compensation grant formulas.

Separate from VAWA, Congress enacted a law increasing resources for the Crime Victims Fund, another federal funding stream used for services to crime victims including domestic violence survivors.
